Re: UFH Comments, Suggestions, Etc.
 

I really want to nominate a mentor from my team. I have written essays on him on the UFH "nominate someone", but nothing has shown up. I guess I don't know how UFH works, so does a panel of Chief VIPs decide, from the nomination essays, who will win?

Suneel,

I have sent you a PM regarding your thread.

I'd like you all to know the status of our voting situation. Our committee currently votes once to narrow down the selection of our recipients, and then does a final vote on the remaining nominations. Those that make it through both voting processes are later honored.

If anyone has any questions, they can contact me personally.

Thank you.

I would say, if there are enough entries, and you can get a few more VIPs involved in the whole process, we should have 4 UFH's instead of 2 in a month. I see a LOT of people very deservant of some recognition all around FIRST. But, I dont know how many people nominate people, so thats upto you guys to judge. UFH has done an excellent job, keep it up.

*bump*

As UFH makes it triumphant return to CD with the much deserved honoring of Greg Marra. I just wanted to ask everyone once again if anyone has any comments, suggestions or feedback they would like to pass on to the UFH committee.

Re: UFH Comments, Suggestions, Etc.
 

Does UFH still exist?

Re: UFH Comments, Suggestions, Etc.
 

If it doesn't , it should.
Great resurrection.

There's an Unsung FIRST Hero
Nominate Someone!
on CD's portal.

To reward a favorite, hardworking, inspiring mentor just Nominate them!

Re: UFH Comments, Suggestions, Etc.
 

I am wondering what the criteria is to make it. I nominated someone last year, and never heard back from it.

Re: UFH Comments, Suggestions, Etc.
 

I've had a few people I've wanted to nominate, but I wasn't sure if the program existed anymore.

Re: UFH Comments, Suggestions, Etc.
 

Is the reason UFH is not active because not enough manpower is avaialbe to go through the nominations? I can't believe there are no nominations. Maybe the moderators should ask if there is anyone willing to step up and (here it comes, my foot in my mouth) choose the winners? It's getting kindof boring to look at the empty box on the portal week after week.

Re: UFH Comments, Suggestions, Etc.
 

From what I understand, nominees have been contacted, but have yet to respond. I suppose some just prefer to remain unsung!

Re: UFH Comments, Suggestions, Etc.
 

Can the judges still not find anyone who wants to be sung? That's unfortunate (and surprising). I hope this program does pick back up, though I know the judges are probably very busy. Great idea though! :)

Whoever is currently in charge of this section, please send me an Email, jmontois340@gmail.com or PM me

I want to get this going again. If it means starting from scratch in terms of selecting a committee to vote on submissions, ETC then so be it.

I believe everyone in the FRC community would like to see this start happening again.

Re: UFH Comments, Suggestions, Etc.
 

I actually submitted an essay today, so I hope this section gets going again.

By the way, remove or obfuscate your email so bots don't pick up on it and spam your email.

Re: UFH Comments, Suggestions, Etc.
 

There is a committee. I believe everything kind of got dropped because honorees weren't responding and there was a queue of people that couldn't be reached.
